About GurneyGoo

Preventing blisters, chafing and pruning in extreme environments

Steve Gurney developed GurneyGoo to win races with his team, but not just any old races - Adventure racing. In extreme elements, and for up to 10 days of continuous racing.

Searing hot deserts

Freezing mountains

Sticky swamps

Long ocean paddles

Bum-numbing bike, horse and camels rides

Soggy, claustrophobic caves...

In Steve's words

Athletes are constantly searching for anything that will give them the edge. It’s not only the glory of the win though, these highly competitive adventure masochists are also driven by the lucrative prize purses.

GurneyGoo is the secret weapon that gave us the edge. Over 20 years of international racing we developed and refined GurneyGoo to its current winning formula.

Winning an Adventure Race is about overcoming the challenges, being, resilient, adaptable and resourceful. There are obstacles like rough weather, getting lost, crashing off your bike, falling out of the kayak, running low on energy. But blisters and foot problems are probably some of the most race-threatening challenges.

We needed a product that was going to prevent blisters, chafing and prune-foot. GurneyGoo was one of the key resources in our winning races

World Champion Adventurers

Steve and his team became world champions. GurneyGoo was a key part of that success. GurneyGoo helped them win in the worst extremes, and it can help you achieve your next adventure too.

Keeping your skin in good shape is absolutely key to any Ultra/Extreme/Endurance race and GurneyGoo is invaluable to racers looking for reliability and consistency.

GurneyGoo has been brutally tested on world champion athletes and not on animals.

GurneyGoo Testimonial

I recently competed in the World's Toughest Mudder 2014 in Las Vegas and I was extremely impressed with Gurney Goo! I applied liberal amounts to chafing areas and feet two times prior to start of event. I intended to re-apply during event, but never felt like I needed to. Amazingly, despite nearly 20 hours of heat, cold, water, mud, wetsuits etc I had NO CHAFING whatsoever! I highly recommend Gurney Goo.
